1TT1CKiNG COLONEL GRANT.

| 1t might have been thought that Democratic
newspapers would have RETAINED from making
assaults upon Colonel Grant, the Republican
candidate for Secretary of State. Gov.
crnor Hill, the official head of the
Democracy Of Ncw-York, no later thar
last spring. showed his regard fol-
the character and ability Of the Colonel by
nominating him for responsible Office. Not
content with that emphatic Endorsement oil
the man. the Governor subsequently in a
public message spoke of Grant as Z" honest and
competent" and as possessed of the con-
fdcncc Of the people without distinction oil
party.n Nor did the Governor in naming
Colonel Grant for public trust encounter any
criticism from the organs OF his party. Many
of them, including "Thc Albany Argus" com
mondcd tho nomination; no one of them,
so far as VIC are aware. assailcd it. For these
cogcnt reasons and not because he Is the son
Of the great General, it was TO be expected
That Democratic newspapers would at least
let Colonel Grant severely alOnc during his
present canvass Nobody looked for a repro
duction in their columns Of the pleasant things
they and Governor Hill had said about him
last spring That would have been generosity.
But decent people had right to conclude
that they would not stutIfy themselves and
cast reflections on the Governor vi Their own
choice by throwing mud at him.
But Colonel Grant gets neither generous
nor Just treatment at the hands of the Denoc-
raoy. Governor Hills home paper, The
Elmra Gazette" greeted his nomination with
the false charge that he was connected with
tho firm Of Grant * Ward. 1.-The Albany
Argus" cchoing the same wanton libel, was
mean enough to remark: "Ior information
regarding the head of the Republican state
ticket. please apply TO Ferdinand Ward sing
Sing "Thc Utica Observer contributes to
the chorus Of dclrction a paragraph repro
duccd from California paper in which Colonel
Grant is spoken Of as " the jumping frog Of
var and politics. "Thc Albany Time" and
"'rhc Buffalo Courier cndeavor 10 make HIM
ridiculous by placing words in his mouth which
he never uttered. Still other Democratic
journals, taking their cue from MIR. RaineS,
the chairman Of the Democratic Convention
soicmnly protest against "hcrcdity' candi-
date for public office.
Wen, all this is interesting rather than i'm
portant and amusing rather than interesting.
II does not hut Colonel Grant, but it does
demonstrate that the Democratic canvass is
in a desperate condition. Let the throwing
Of the mud at the Colonel proceed. None OF
il will stick.

Mr.. John s Kennedy seems to be as fun
Of Scotch pcrtinacity as the owners and hackers
Of the Thistle. Some Time ago he made up
his mind TO test the Contract Labor law, and
now that hc has got United states District
Attorney Walker on his side, that statute Il
in a fair way Of being cast into the judicial
cruciblc. The victims are TO be- the Church
Of tho Holy Trinity and ITS new rector, the
Rev. T.. Walpolc Warren. and the question Is
whether the church is Liable to fine Of 81 900
for making an unlawful contract with for
cigncr to El its pulpit. 1t is decidedly
interesting case. Mr.. Walker, IN his
clever letter 10 Mr.. Kennedy (Which VIII be
found on our eighth page, points ont the
absurd character Of the law. but he finds no
loopholc Of escape from the construction that
u church in this country cannot engage min
istcr abroad any more than farmer can con
tract with a foreigner to serve him as day
labOrcr.
Mr. Kennedy is very much in earnest,
but he is moved by no hostility toward Holy
Trinity or Mr.. Warren. On the contrary, If
the penalty is cxactcd, he intends to help
the church pay it.

4 LANE EXCUSE.

II astonishcs the Democratic journals that
the highest rank, in severe Civil Service
examination to test the merits of different
candidates for the position Of Chief Of the
! Bureau Of Elections has been gained by ono
whom they have delighted to call Johnny
o Bricn" If they imagined that calling him
" Johnny" made him an incapable and unit
person for an important trust, they may learn
useful lesson from their disappointment
Snccrlng at a Republican does not necessarily
mako him a worthless individual. 1t was to
be expected that the Democratic members OF
the Police Board would not consent on any
consideration to appoint Republican 80 well
qualified. But the public can now see precisely
how the Civil Service rules are used. under
Democratic administrations, to dcfraud the
people of tho services of the most competent
men.
The examination was ordered in the
hope that Mr. O'Bricn would not compete, OF
would be surpassed by some Democratic as
pirant For amusement, though not rcc0gnz
ing the authority TO examine he
did compete, and in tho tests de-
vised by the Board surpassed all
other asprants. Now it is announced that
he will not be appointed under any circum-
tanccs, because among the other applicants
arc some who were Union veterans And this
illustrates another phase Of the fraud. Prcsl'
dent Cleveland and Governor Hill have both
taken especial pains to give preference to
candidates Of a very different sort. whenever
Union veterans could be thrust out Of Office
or dcbarrcd from places Of trust because they
wore Rcpublicans The President has APP
nointcd thousands Of cX-Confcdcratcs. and
thousands Of notorious Coppcrhcads, to the
exclusion Of Democratic veterans who sought
tho same positions. But when an opportunity
comes to push a Republican out Of the way,
if no better pretcXt can be found, there is
suddenly developed a gushing zeal to reward
the veterans of the Union service

A PRETTY STATE OF AFFAIRs.-A faith
er might to-day tramp all over Chicago with
a sou who wanted to learn an honest trade,
30 as to become useful citizen, and fail,
unless he took him to the Manual Training
School and paid tuition for him. Hundreds
of boys are now thus taught baudicraft at
the expense of fathers who can afford to
pay for it. But let poor mans son try it,,
and he will be met st the door ofthe factory
or shop by walking delegate OF the
knights of labor, and turned away; Ii
that does not do, his young face will be
bruised By brutal fists, and SO will the faces
of those who stand by him. If any one sup
poses that there is any limit to this kiud OF
opposition-any point at which the would
be- monopolsts of labor would draw the
line of limitation upon themselves-he does
not understand depraved human nature.
If individual liberty to acquire skill and
earn bread and control earnings is not pro-
tected by law, and by resolute public senti'
ment behind that law, then reign OF ab-
solute lawlessness is visible not very far
distant in the future. The disbarred classes
on one hand and the employing classes on
the other will Join hands and fight for their
rights. The violence will not very long be
ali upon one side, and the violence which
has human liberty and rights back OF IL
will win. When organized labor determines
